Personally, I feel that if in the novels they give the Empire the "Unknown Regions" (but wait, do those even exist, after Ep.2? It was said that if it isn't in the Jedi database, then it doesn't exist) and the Empire and the Chiss sort of..merge? Now that would prove entertaining, albiet, highly unlikely. Then, you could have sort of a Cold War between the New Republic and Empire. I always pictured Paelleon to look a little like Stalin.

He does, at least in the SWEC illustration. Now all we need is for him to die of a brain hemorrage and be replaced by a semi-competant gap-toothed bald fat-man.

He does. And I doubt it was purely accidental. Especially due to the anti-Empire the EU writers and such have.

If you want to bring the Empire back you can thank the EU authors for giving a window of opprotunity,now then if theNew Republic defeats the Vong it will be severly weakened leaving a vaccume the empire and Chiss could exploit.I may be wrong but still the NR will be in no shape to fight the Empire just after a war with the Vong

If i remember my readings from the Essential Guide to Species book and numourous RPG's(not that they really count for much) the Chiss are not an expansionist government and they look upon first strike actions as such an offense that when Thrawn did so against the Outbound flight they exiled him from their area.
